but the rank-and-file union and nonunion coal miners are i think going to romney. we met someone from the railroad. railroads get up to 30% of their revenue from coal. now those stocks are being hit. so a lot of blue-collar union jobs are on the line and these people are worried about their jobs. melissa: see i agree with you that it's a problem. i'm just not sure the message is getting all the way through. how many votes do you think this could possibly cost the president in ohio? and could it decide the state? >> it could decide the state especially southeastern ohio where coal mining is important. look the state of west virgina, in a primary voted 40%, voted for a convict, compared to president obama. because of the war on coal i believe. and you also have virginia and pennsylvania, still involved with coal. so this could be a big issue but there is no doubt epa's war on coal is forcing these utilities to close. every time a utility closes, utility workers aae getting thrown out. there is nowhere to ship the coal because they're not buying it. melissa: okay. i d
